Rustastic Password
This Rust package allows you to safely read passwords from standard input in a console application.
You can build the documentation with cargo doc
or view it online.
I'd appreciate feedback if you use this library :-)
Usage
Add rpassword
as a dependency in Cargo.toml:
[dependencies]
rpassword = "4.0"
Use rpassword
within your code:
extern crate rpassword;
fn main() {
// Prompt for a password on TTY (safest but not default for backwards compatibility)
let pass = rpassword::read_password_from_tty(Some("Password: ")).unwrap();
println!("Your password is {}", pass);
// Prompt for a password on STDOUT
let pass = rpassword::prompt_password_stdout("Password: ").unwrap();
println!("Your password is {}", pass);
// Prompt for a password on STDERR
let pass = rpassword::prompt_password_stderr("Password: ").unwrap();
println!("Your password is {}", pass);
// Read a password without prompt
let pass = rpassword::read_password().unwrap();
println!("Your password is {}", pass);
}
